Chris Hemsworth’s friend and personal trainer, Luke Zocchi, has married his partner Maria Babic, almost two years after getting engaged.
The fitness guru, 40, and his partner tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in the Northern Rivers Hinterland on Saturday.
Hollywood actor Chris, 41, was part of Luke’s groomsmen team for his special day, and the wedding party enjoyed an outdoor ceremony at 3pm in the grounds of Nutting Hill Villa in Clunes, located 30 minutes southwest of Byron Bay.
Luke and his groomsmen appeared to be wearing white suits, while Maria’s bridesmaids looked stunning in silk dresses in pale teal shades.
Maria’s white wedding dress featured a long train and veil that ran down the aisle as the lovebirds said “I do.”
The husband and wife were surrounded by an intimate number of approximately 100 guests, including family and friends, for the outdoor nuptials.
Several photographers captured the beautiful moment the couple exchanged vows as an artist sang and strummed his guitar as Maria walked down the grassy aisle.
Guests at the wedding included the likes of Nova radio star Lauren Phillips, who is said to have worn an Aje dress that day.
